I have to agree with others here Righty. Leave the DC-3 at the Hobby Shop. (They'll understand.)

Take a look at the Great Planes Super Sportster, I'm willing to bet you'll like the way it looks, and it would make a good second plane. It's available either as a kit or an ARF too.

For my first kit I chose a Top Flite 81" Cessna 182. It was too ambitious, and after 250 hours it's still sitting, unfinished. I burned out on it, but will finish it someday.

You'll be able to buy that DC-3 after building a couple other kits, if you find you still want one.
